Circulars and notifications on section 395

101 circulars and 28 notifications on what is now Certificates. Every one of them was issued under the Income-tax Act, 1961. They appear here because the department’s own concordance carries the provision each one names to section 395 of the Income-tax Act, 2025 — which is an inference about where the ground is now covered, not a holding that the instrument still bites.

What this page does not tell you. It does not tell you which of these is still operative. A circular can be withdrawn by a later one without either saying so on its face, and a notification can be superseded by the amendment of the provision it was made under. Read the latest one first, then work backwards.
